Geoff Keyes Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Well, I like to start at one end and just keep chewing :lol:. The handle is part of a 1890's era carving set. It's obviously pre-ban, so there is no hassle that way. Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Keyes Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 It's my usual 1084/15n20. Fairly low layer count and then patterned with the power hammer and a hand hammer. I need to get a bit more aggressive with the edge, By the times I grind down to the thickness, I'm through most of the pattern. I'm glad you like it.
